SmocksnBondsBoutique Instagram Giveaway!
And so it begins … A few weeks ago, I came across this Instagram account, smocksnbondsboutique with the cutest little baby rompers! I fell in love with a couple of the ruffle booty variety ensembles, so I reached out to the Etsy owner, Lauren, to see if she’d be interested in letting me review one of her rompers and doing a giveaway. Well imagine my pleasure when she was interested in both!!
Well, I received this adorable pink and blue elephant romper just in time for the NJ summer heat!
The romper is so well-made!! The fabric is substantial, everything is double seamed, and it’s finished with a zig zag stitch! Lauren says, “I want that garment to last!” I was also very pleased that the bottom is closed with three zaps!! She knows about those diaper changes! As I wanted this romper to fit Wyntr the whole summer, I did ask for it to have a little room to grow, so the straps were a little long. But, I fixed that with a couple of safety pins in the back and by criss-crossing the straps. Then, we were good to go! All in all, I’m in LOVE with this romper and my pumpkin in it!! Seriously, who can resist a ruffled baby booty?!

I had this LOOONNNNG post about why I forgot to pick a winner for my Workout Giveaway and blamed it on my work schedule, technology and my selective memory.
But, for real … in the end … I JUST FOR FORGOT!
So, with no further ado … (drumroll) … the winner is …
APRIL WELLS
E-mail your address to hairscapades@gmail.com and you’ll have a jump rope coming your way!
And just for the record, I expect that there will be a report of some kind that comes out in the next year or two that says jumping rope is one of the top 5, easiest, economical, most effective, and efficient exercises EVER! When it comes out, remember where you heard it first!
Stay safe and eat healthy over the hoildays …

EboniCurls Ebonnet Sets Giveaway Winners!!
I loved reading all of the comments about your wonderful mothers on the Ebonnet Giveaway post!! Mothers are truly a blessing from God. I spent yesterday with my mom and two grandmothers for a belated Mother’s Day as I didn’t get to see them last Sunday. I am thankful to have such wonderful role models in my life. Every conversation with my mom reminds me of why I think she is the best mother in the world (I realized when I was a teenager that most kids think that and, if they don’t, something ain’t right). So, just shouting out the moms in my life! LOVE YOU MUCH!!
Okay, now without further ado …
The winners of the Ebonnet sets are …
HAZEL PITTMAN

GLORIA

Hairscapades in Better Than Good Hair!
2/2/13: Okay ladies! This is it!! I got a personal text from Nik asking me to get the word out! Please buy your copy (or two or three or four … I got 3) of Curly Nikki’s Better Than Good Hair BY 5 PM TODAY!!! In the publishing world, you have one week to make it in the top 20 and BTGH is so close!! So, if you can buy another copy AND/OR get family and friends to do so, TODAY IS THE DAY!!
**********************************************************************************************************************
It’s here!!! It’s here!! Okay, my copy isn’t here. But Hairscapades follower Myeisha got her copy of Curly Nikki’s Better Than Good Hair yesterday and shared pictures of my Exercise and Natural Hair article on the Hairscapades Facebook page!!
Woot! Woot!
OH!!! And get this!!!! Though they don’t mention any of the contributors by name, Huffington Post had this to say:
“We especially love the sections on how to maintain gorgeous hair while exercising (since that’s proving to present some major health risks) …”
That’s me!!! That’s me!!! LOL!!
Anywho, hopefully I’ll get my copy today! If you haven’t ordered yours, now is a great time to get it!! Because, you can get a $10 Shea Moisture coupon when you do the following:
- Buy a print copy of the book between January 29th and February 2nd on Amazon.com, BarnesandNoble.com or at your local bookstore.
- Register at Shea Moisture Events Giveaway HERE.
How easy is that? And shoot, if you get the coupon, it’s like getting the book for free!! Buuuuut, you have to order and register fast as this offer is only good while supplies last!! (Full details of offer here.)
(Hmmm, I think I may need to pick up a couple more copies for the family myself! Given my PJ ways, you know that I want some Shea Moisture coupons ;).)

Win a $400 Romwe Shopping Spree!!
Hey y’all!! Curly Nikki is having a giveaway for a $400 Romwe shopping spree … you read that right!! FOUR-ZERO-ZERO!! FOUR HUNDRED!!!! 400 BONES, BUCKS, DUCKETS!! WHAT?!?! And all you have to do to enter to win is pre-order her debut book, Better Than Good Hair, and e-mail her with a proof of purchase!! Check out the details below and let’s blow this jawnt up and show ’em that this isn’t a trend!! Natural is here to stay!!
***********************************************************************************************************************
by Curly Nikki
Its about to go down. Thats right! It’s almost book time. In T-Minus 16 days, ‘Better Than Good Hair’ will be on shelves. I hope y’all are as excited about this as I am! And before January 29th comes (and I’m as nervous as when I’m slowly tearing into a can of biscuits), I want to take a sec to tell you something: I need you gals! Why? Because I want us to make waves. I want us to be the norm, mainstream. Never should we lose our individuality – but at the same time we should be wholly identifiable as those women who said “You know what? I. Love. MY. Hair.” Numbers are what matter here. I told you before – the world is watching.
This post is like that moment in many Fresh Prince of Bel-Air episodes when Will looks directly in the camera, or the camera zooms out and you see the studio. Completely transparent. So who’s going to be my DJ Jazzy Jeff banging on the drums?! YOU! Buy the book for your co-workers, your boss, your teachers, your babysitters, your mailman, your milkman, your pushaman (if you’re into that kind of thing, lol). You drop the mad beat and I promise we’ll hit the running man together.
Later Gators,
Nik
p.s.
In conjunction with the other giveaway, here’s another…
All you have to do is:
1. Pre-order the print version of the book, HERE
2. Email your proof of purchase to info@betterthangoodhairthebook.com
For your chance to win:
a $400 Romwe shopping spree + an advanced, autographed copy of ‘Better Than Good Hair’ (so you can give yours to your best curlfriend!)
Already on pre-order status? As long as you’ve emailed me (for the Nook & iPad giveaway), you’re already eligible!
This contest is only 48 hours long and closes on Wednesday morning (Jan 16, 2013) at 10:30 am EST. Good luck!
*****************************************************************************************
Woot Woot!! I’m already eligible! How about you?!
